Shayna

Shayna is a great little dog. Snickers and I have fallen completely in love with her. Every time I watch them nuzzle and snuggle or play with each other, I think I want to KEEP HER. The only problem with that is that there is one of me and two of them. They are both [continue reading...]

in Ella

From Ella’s New Foster Mom, Molly:
Ella is a love bug. I can say that I know no other shiba who loves tummy rubs as much as she does. Ella loves talk. She grunts and grumbles while playing with toys and chasing her buddy Haiku.
Her training is going extremely well. Ella is a very smart dog [continue reading...]

NYCSR

We talked to a LOT of people about homeless dogs, breed-specific rescue, Shiba Inu rescue, fostering, adopting, volunteering, etc. We got several new adoption applications [continue reading...]

in Coia

Foster Mom Alicia writes:
Coia is a very spirited, good natured and straightforward. She has an independent way about her and can sometimes be aloof toward strangers. This is actually great in NYC because we encounter many people everyday and if I stop to talk I know she is not going to jump all over them [continue reading...]

Shayna

Shayna was surrendered by her owner because she didn’t like sharing her home with puppies. (Her owner had other dogs that had puppies recently.) Shayna was apparently very unhappy and needed a place to live where she felt more comfortable. She’s definitely comfortable living with me! Snickers and I are enjoying having [continue reading...]
